This is necessary if Apple is going to compete at all in the enterprise server market because data centers are trying to switch to VMs for a whole host of reasons. So in other words, the terms under which VirtualBox is officially supporting OS X guests are exactly the terms which Apple allows. As yet, Apple won't allow the desktop versions of OS X to legally run in a VM.

Mac developers rejoice! It's amazing the amount of people that still use 10.3 and 10.4 argh!
